Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?

After we signed the contract with Right Choice Pools and gave a total of $8,455.00 in deposits, it all went downhill from there. Right Choice Pools is attempting to defraud us by keeping our $8,455.00, when all we received from them are drawings of our pool. No permits were ever applied for.  No site work was ever commenced.  And despite their guarantee, which is also on their website, no engineering plans were ever completed.

 PLEASE BE AWARE OF THE FOLLOWING 3 THINGS BEFORE DECIDING TO DO BUSINESS WITH RIGHT CHOICE POOLS:

 (1) Matt Barrass, the owner of the company, is NOT A LICENSED CONTRACTOR. If you look up who the licensed contractor is for the company, it lists Christopher Barrass, which is Matt’s brother. Matt Barrass has also been FINED AND PENALIZED by the Construction Industry Licensing Board for accepting over $30,000 in deposits for work which he was unlicensed to perform, doing a small amount of the work, then abandoning the job.

 (2) Matt Barrass previously worked for Nationwide Pools, which is a company which the ATTORNEY GENERAL FILED SUIT AGAINST and froze the assets of, as the company used a variety of false and deceptive marketing practices related to the sale and construction of pools, including: failing to pay subcontractors which caused liens to be placed on consumers' homes, making misrepresentations relating to pool financing, charging illegal credit card fees, making misrepresentations regarding manufacturer rebates and warranties, and failing to complete construction of pools.

(3) Matt was also sued by Nationwide Pools. His claims in his responses to postings of other victims that he has never been sued is false, and we have the documentation to prove it.

(3) Finally, Right Choice Pools offers consumers financial incentives to post positive reviews about the company on Angie’s List and other forms of social media. Therefore, the positive ratings are artificially skewed and most positive reviews are from people for whom the company has not done any work for, other than giving an estimate and amateur drawing of the pool.

All this information can be confirmed. Go to myfloridalicense.com/dbpr/ where you can search the records of unlicensed activity and search under his last name.  To see the detailed report, you will need to request a public record through the website and they will email it or mail it to you. To see the law suit filed against Matt Barrass by Nationwide Pools, go to the Broward County Clerk of Courts website (clerk-17th-flcourts.org) and do a public access case search.
